Cheng Yize's reasoning was impeccable: he had work to do, the show's recording had to continue, and the revenue target had not yet been reached, so someone had to take over his job.

It's definitely not appropriate to ask someone else, and no one would pay any attention to him anyway.

But Chen Qingxuan is his wife; they are from the same family unit.

So, he hopes his wife can share the burden with him. What do you all think?

Therefore, the decision-making power still rests with Chen Qingxuan.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Chen Qingxuan looked at Cheng Yize without a smile: "Didn't you ask the company for leave to accompany me on this show? Why have you changed your mind now? Does the company go back on its word?"

Cheng Yize's expression immediately changed: "Wife, don't talk nonsense. It's just that I need to help keep an eye on this project and hold a meeting. It's not that serious. This is a live broadcast, not a time for arbitrary editing. Anything you say could affect my work. Let's think twice before we act."

Chen Qingxuan pursed her lips and remained silent.

"Then I'll go to a meeting this afternoon. Can you finish the rest of the work for me?"

Cheng Yize looked at Chen Qingxuan, waiting for her answer.

In the end, Chen Qingxuan nodded.

Cheng Yize's job wasn't easy; it consisted mostly of odd jobs, but he still managed to keep busy all morning.

Chen Qingxuan is better suited to be a pastry chef; she's the real heavyweight. If Cheng Yize were to take over the work, the pastry making would be affected.

"I won't trouble you all, don't worry. I'll make some snacks and help with all the chores at the same time."

Chen Qingxuan noticed that everyone's expressions were not good, so she lowered her voice and even put on a flattering tone.

After all, she rarely gets to feel the atmosphere of working together anymore. Being confined to her family, she has lost so much.

However, couples must support each other. Cheng Yize had to go to a meeting and specifically assigned her the work, so she had to be competent in both tasks. Even though she knew her abilities were limited, she could not back down.

“You can’t finish these two jobs right now. You’re in charge of the key work, so you should be responsible for this job. As for the other issues, let’s coordinate and work together.”

Female internet celebrity Teacher Zhao came to Chen Qingxuan's rescue.

Chen Qingxuan doesn't have three heads and six arms; she has to handle two things at the same time, which might affect their business.

"Then who should do Cheng Yize's job? Our workload is already full. Everyone has been busy all morning, and we only managed to achieve a turnover of 2,000 by working together. Are we going to continue to pay for other people's lack of effort?"

Jiang Tian asked the question frankly and openly.

Everyone looked at her without prior arrangement.

[Is Jiang Tian being a bit heartless? Does she really need to act like this? If Cheng Yize had gone out to have fun, I wouldn't have said anything. He went to a meeting, and since his company has things to do, everyone can help him out. It's not a big deal.]

[Don't try to morally blackmail us. Jiang Tian makes a good point. We can't expect others to pay for their work. Nobody owes anyone anything. Everyone's busy. Suddenly having an extra person's workload, even if it's shared with others, is still unnecessary exploitation.]

Why is Cheng Yize so troublesome? After watching for so long, I'm getting more and more annoyed with him. You're participating in a variety show, can't you coordinate your schedule? You insist on having meetings even during a live broadcast, does the world stop turning without you?

So, are we just going to leave Cheng Yize's job unattended, or are we going to make Chen Qingxuan shoulder two responsibilities?

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat tense.

Chen Qingxuan forced a smile; she didn't want her family's affairs to make everyone unhappy.

"I can do it. The pastries need to be baked in the oven. While we wait, I will take over my husband's part of the task. Don't worry, I'm always good at coordinating various issues and won't cause any trouble for anyone."

Chen Qingxuan's understanding nature has made many viewers have a better impression of her.

She truly embodies the image of a good woman in the public's mind: hardworking, resilient, and patient.

However, her image as a good woman makes many people subconsciously think that she is not aggressive. If they had to choose someone to bully, they would definitely choose her, not Jiang Tian.

Jiang Tian shook her head: "Can I ask you one more question?"

Chen Qingxuan felt inexplicably nervous under Jiang Tian's gaze: "Go ahead and ask?"

"I mean, if you don't talk to your husband, the only punishment is that he won't get to eat dinner tonight, can you accept that?"

Jiang Tian's question left Chen Qingxuan speechless, and everyone else was equally dumbfounded.

What does she mean by this? Is she trying to drive a wedge between the couple?

"You need to think this through. As the head pastry chef, if you take on someone else's responsibility, you might mess up both jobs. That won't do you any good, and it won't do the shop any good either. If it's worse, messing things up will damage your image. After all, in other people's eyes, you're almost a superman. You can do anything, you can endure anything. People who are always hard on themselves can't find true happiness."

Chen Qingxuan stared blankly at Jiang Tian.

Jiang Tian sighed.

"I really don't understand why people can't treat work as work and just talk about workplace matters. If an employee isn't involved in our collaborative project, then naturally they don't deserve to enjoy the results. If they say they can't participate, isn't firing them the simplest way?"

"His workload is both heavy and light, and we can share it. In return, we should enjoy the fruits of his labor. If someone takes on other people's work for their own selfish reasons, even causing the project to suffer more negative consequences, shouldn't such behavior be criticized?"

The shop was completely silent.

"I hope everyone can take our dessert business today seriously. We are a collective, a system, and it needs to function. Why do you subconsciously think that Chen Qingxuan can replace her husband's responsibilities? Chen Qingxuan has her own agency; she is the main employee. Why should she let someone who does odd jobs interfere with her main work? Don't you think this logic is very flawed?"

Jiang Tian's eloquent speech left everyone deep in thought.

They discovered that only Jiang Tian truly treated the shop's business as a business, while many others treated it merely as a small task, failing to consider the objectivity and significance of the project.

Chen Qingxuan suddenly burst into tears.
